Those who lost their lives in war, sometimes in acts of bravery, are called heroes. Memorials of such heroes were erected with respect by villagers or their families. They are called Virgal or Hero Stones. Hero Stones are found in significant numbers in our villages. Memorials of deceased women or Sati are also found. Hero Stones can be a tool for understanding our history.
